I am healthy now, considering where I was as a morbidly obese woman. I can not tolerate Optislim. To me it tastes like cardboard and makes me gag. I spoke to a Bariatric Nutritionist and a BariatricbDietician about my dietary options. They are qualufied to give advice. I just mentioned what worked for me. I

I hope you didn’t stray from your diet & that you kept on track to real your goals 🤩😇]]> By the way – we also had ALOT of availability issues with certain Optifast products here in Australia for the past few months, but in the past week or so I’ve noticed one or two products have been coming into the shops & so they should soon all be back on for sale 👍🏻

Like exactly to the letter! (But plus one thing: In the morning I add 2 spoons of coffee dissolved in the water I add to my chocolate shake & make it a mocha ☕ teehee 💖) & then like you I mainly go with the bars at lunch which are great for a hit in texture - esp if I have choc or cappuccino. They are both amazing. I almost feel like “who needs sweet treats when lunch pretty much feels like I’ve eaten a few Mars Bars but instead of feeling guilty I am FULL & SATIATED from it - so you get lunch,nutrients,the afternoon pick-me-up junk food+all the satisfaction It’s the best! And I love veges so I’m happy to eat them any which way so dinner is a breeze for me 😊 then my lemon creme icecream at dessert time is just the best end to the day 🤤 😋 AND THAT *TEXTURE* OMG! ITS SO THICK & SILKY & MOUSSY & HEAVENLY 😍🤩🥰 - it’s hardly a diet at all! Haha, sometimes I feel guilty that sticking to this program is so easy 🤭- cause everyone else is finding it all so hard & im actually enjoying the food I feel like I’m cheating lol! (I’m not - I only take in 1000-1300/day.. I haven’t moved down any levels because I don’t want to haha ☺ I like the food but I’ve already lost all the weight & my bmi is now 17.2 (*just*) underweight - but I’ll make up for that at easter next weekend for sure - but can I stay eating like this to just maintain my weight? I finally found foods I like, & the contain all the daily recommended vitamins & minerals for the day so I don’t know if it’s a problem or not? I’d love to know what you guys think or what you’d do in my situation 🤔 😔 (expert opinions are also welcome, I can take it)]]> Ingrid I do the exact same regime with my optifast 😱!

My day consists of 3 Optifast products, a shake in the morning and I alternate between a shake or a bar at lunch time. Dinner I have 2 cups of non starch veggies and 1 Optifast dessert which I freeze for 20 minutes and have this as an ice cream.
The only problem I’m facing, I only have supplies until the 11/2/2021 – all Optifast suppliers in New Zealand are out of stock Therefore I may have to consider the alternative by using Optislim. Hopefully it will have the same results.

Comment on Optislim vs Optifast: Discover Which Works Better by Norm Strathdee https://fintys.com.au/supplements/weight-loss-shakes/optislim-optifast/#comment-399 Thu, 14 Jan 2021 03:11:29 +0000 https://fintys.com.au/?page_id=368#comment-399 I was sceptical about weight loss “shakes”, as I have seen several people use them without success. However, I am sure that they were not exercising or cutting back on “treats” either.
I am a 66 yr old Type 2 diabetic, and was advised to try Optifast Shakes by my dietician. I am not grossly overweight, but finding it difficult to shed the final 2-3 kgs to reach my optimum weight.
I was surprised to find how good they tasted and how full I felt after consuming one.
Admittedly I have only been taking one per day, and am only on day 8, but I feel that this will work for me. Thanks for the comparison article, I have a friend that is using Optislim and will be interested to see how that works for her.

Comment on Fat Blaster Weight Loss Shakes Review by Christina https://fintys.com.au/supplements/weight-loss-shakes/fat-blaster/#comment-388 Fri, 01 Jan 2021 20:48:40 +0000 https://fintys.com.au/?page_id=325#comment-388 I have started using Fat Blaster, although I dont weigh myself daily, I am now able to fit into clothes that I hadnt been able to fit into previously and that is after two weeks. At the moment fat blaster is half price at coles so I am going to buy some more today before Wednesday when the specials stop at Coles on a weekly basis.
